Gerard's Thoughts and Commentary

If abortion is the killing of our unborn children, which it is, then how should we go about ending abortion today?  Are we doing what is takes?  What will it take?  Are we doing enough -  are we honestly committed to ending abortion ASAP? Is Fr. Frank Pavone, Director of Priests for Life, correct when he says, " abortion will only end when America 'sees' abortion for what it is." Maybe it is time to "step-up" the game.
